A guy on this forum named Marty does them. Think his screen name is Myride7. There are several places to get the lights and depending on what year you have as to how many and what size. I done mine myself and fixin to do my bro in laws. Whatever you do dont order from the guy in Puerto Rico as he is a joke. I not sure about price that is Marty's deal and would not want to mis quote. Here is a link to the ones I used.

Do you have any pics of your gauges after the installation of your new lights?

Do a search on gauges. I'm in the process of doing mine just waiting for the LEDs from the same link above for the speedo and the tach. The 4 other smaller gauges are bulbs I'm using these WLED-x5 LED Wide Angle LED bulb from SUPER BRIGHT LEDS. Like I said do a search.

Here are a couple of shotty cell phone pics. This is the tach only as I am still finishing my winter mods and dont have everything together yet. The gauges actually look more blue in real time than what the pics show. they have a nice blue glow. Try to get better pics after I get everything back together and will use the OL 's camera as it takes better pics.

I will say this it is not for begginers. You need to have the right soldering iron. If you get the led's to hot or the circut board to hot you ruin them. More tedious than hard. the led's are super small. It is well worth it when you get done. As for scale i would say 6 to 7.
